Shore-access Bonaire double reef with a shallow start.
Shore-access Bonaire double reef with a shallow start.
Punt Vierkant (41) is Bonaire's southwest double-reef entry: a shore-access site with a flat sandy entry, a calm inner reef, and a deeper outer wall that rewards a slow drop to the second reef. It is easy to read, good for training or relaxed reef dives, but the outer sections can run stronger and deserve respect. Parking is close to the water and the site is a dependable Bonaire classic for coral and schooling fish.
